[Buildroot] [PATCH v12 0/6] gobject-introspection: new package

[aduskett at gmail.com]

From: Adam Duskett <Aduskett@gmail.com>

GOI: the return of the revenge!

Introduced in goi 1.60.x, autotools is no longer supported.

A thousand foot view of this patch series includes:
- Adding the new libiberty package and making gdb depend on it.
- Bumping GOI to 1.60.2 and converting to meson 
- Introducing several patches that are meson specific.
- Removing several patches that were autotools specific
- Lots of frustration.


Enjoy!

Adam

[Buildroot] [PATCH v12 1/6] package/libiberty: new package

[aduskett at gmail.com]

From: Adam Duskett <Aduskett@gmail.com>

Some packages, like prelink-cross, will want to use libiberty but do
not bundle their own instance (which is good!).

However, libiberty is made for being bundled in packages: all GNU
packages that use libiberty (gcc, binutils, gdb et al...) all have
their own bundled variant. This means that there is no official
upstream for libiberty; the closest being as part of the
combined binutils-gdb tree.

So we introduce a new host-only package, that installs just libiberty
from a binutils released tarball.

Again, as libiberty is usually bundled in packages, it usually only
install a static version. Furthermore, it does not obey to the usual
--enable-shared and --disable-static flags; it only ever builds a
static version.

Furthermore, this library is not built with -fPIC, but some packages
may pick it to build shared objects. This is the case for host-gdb,
for example, which accidentally picks that library instead of its
internal one.

So, rather than fix the various gdb versions and variants we can use,
we ensure that the libiberty we install is usable in shared objects,
and we ensure it is always built before host-gdb.

[Buildroot] [PATCH v12 2/6] package/prelink-cross: new package

[aduskett at gmail.com]

From: Adam Duskett <Aduskett@gmail.com>

Prelink-cross emulates a runtime linker for a given sysroot. This is
necessary to allow gobject-introspection to build its typelib files
during cross-compiling.

We're using a sha1 on the cross_prelink branch, as we need the
RTLD-enabled variant of prelink-cross.

[Buildroot] [PATCH v12 6/6] package/gobject-introspection: new package

[aduskett at gmail.com]

From: Adam Duskett <Aduskett@gmail.com>

GObject introspection is a middleware layer between C
libraries (using GObject) and language bindings. The C library
can be scanned at compile time and generate a metadata file,
in addition to the actual native C library. Then at runtime,
language bindings can read this metadata and automatically
provide bindings to call into the C library.

There's an XML format called GIR used by GObject-Introspection.
The purpose of it is to provide a standard structure to access the
complete available API that a library or other unit of code exports.
It is meant to be language agnostic using namespaces to separate
core, language or library specific functionality.

Cross-compiling gobject-introspection is not an easy task. The main
issue is that in the process of creating the XML files,
gobject-introspection must first run and scan the binary, which, if the
binary is cross-compiled, would not typically be possible from the host
system.

Because of this limitation, several wrappers are used to call instead
first out qemu which will then run the native scanner to create the
binaries.

There are seven total patches and four different wrapper files needed
to successfully cross-compile and run this package, many of them are
from open-embedded, but two of them are of my own doing.

1) Revert a previous, incomplete attempt at adding cross-compiling support.

2) Add support for cross compiling with meson.

3) Disable tests when cross-compiling.

4) Add support for the various wrappers. (See patch for details.)

5) Add an option to use a binary wrapper; this patch will force
   giscanner to use a wrapper executable to run binaries it's producing,
   instead of attempting to run them from the host.

6) Add an option to use an LDD wrapper, again, useful for cross-compiled
   environments.

7) Add a --lib-dirs-envar option to pass to giscanner. (See patch for details.)

8) Add rpath-links to ccompiler: when passing the PACKAGE_GIR_EXTRA_LIBS_PATH
   to the ccompiler.py script, ccompiler.py needs to add -Wl,-rpath-link to the
   environment for the package to correctly link against the passed on paths.

9) Ignore error return codes from ldd-wrapper because prelink-rtld returns 127
   when it can't find a library, which will break subprocess.check_output().

  - Use | for all sed functions (Thomas)
  - Remove GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_WRAPPERS (Thomas)
  - Add GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_REMOVE_DEVELOPMENT_FILES target finalize
    hook. (Thomas)
  - Use $(dirname $0) in wrappers instead of $STAGING_DIR (Thomas)
  - Remove _GIR_EXTRA_LIBS_PATH in pkg-autotools.mk in favor of a
    seperate patch. (Thomas)

Changes v8 -> v9:
  - Create the $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/lib/gio/modules-dummy directory in the
    GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_POST_PATCH_HOOKS to prevent qemu from
    segfaulting when g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper is ran.
  - Remove the $(STAGING_DIR) prefix from gobject-introspection-1.0.pc
    to prevent pkg-config from appending a second staging_dir to the path
    of the g-ir-compiler. This prevents packages such a gstreamer1 from
    trying to call $(STAGING_DIR)/$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin/g-ir-compiler,
    which will break the build.

Changes v7 -> v8:
  - Add "select BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_PRELINK_CROSS" to Config.in

Changes v6 -> v7:
  - Remove the cross-ldd script in favor of the prelink-cross package.
  - Install the ldd and qemu wrappers in a post patch hook seperate of
    the other wrappers.
  - Set --enable-introspection-data in the configure options.

Changes v5 -> v6:
  - Update gobject-introspection to 1.56.1
  - Remove upstreamed 0008-add-Float128.patch

Changes v4 -> v5:
  - Added a more detailed commit message (Yann)
  - Removed  $HOST_DIR/bin/qemu- at HOST_QEMU_ARCH@ @HOST_QEMU_CPU_TUNE@
    in favor of @QEMU_USER@ (Thanks Yann)

Changes v3 -> v4:
  - Removed RFC tag.
  - Added 0007-Add-rpath-links-to-ccompiler.patch
  - Removed config-paths-with-PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR-.patch as it is not
    Yocto specific.
  - Added the _GIR_EXTRA_LIBS_PATH to pkg-autotools.mk. This allows
    package specific Gir libraries to be passed on to
    g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper.
  - Fixed a typo in g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper.in.
  - Remove BR2_PACKAGE_GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_ARCH_SUPPORTS_TARGET in
    favor of BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_QEMU_ARCH_SUPPORTS

Changes v2 -> v3:
  - Removed Linux kernel dependency (baruch)
  - Changed $(LINUX_VERSION) to $(BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HEADERS_AT_LEAST)
    (baruch)
  - Changed @LINUX_VERSION@ in g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper.in to
    @TOOLCHAIN_HEADERS_VERSION@ to match the above variable change.
  - Added BR2_PACKAGE_GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_ARCH_SUPPORTS_TARGET in
    Config.in with only BR2_arm selected for now.
  - Removed BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_QEMU_ARCH_SUPPORTS in favor of the above
    change.
  - Added two new lines in the base Makefile which removes any remaining
    .gir or .rnc files from the target filing system, as these are not
    needed or runtime, only compile time.

Changes v1 -> v2:
  - Fixed wrappers
  - Added 0007-giscanner-add-a-lib-dirs-envvar-option.patch
  - Added 0008-add-Float128.patch

+Subject: [PATCH] giscanner: add --use-binary-wrapper option
+
+With this option, giscanner will use a wrapper executable to run
+binaries it's producing, instead of running them directly. This
+is useful when binaries are cross-compiled and cannot be run directly,
+but they can be run using for example QEMU emulation.

+Subject: [PATCH] giscanner: add a --lib-dirs-envvar option
+
+By default LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set to the list of target library paths;
+this breaks down in cross-compilation environment, as we need to run a
+native emulation wrapper rather than the target binary itself. This patch
+allows exporting those paths to a different environment variable
+which can be picked up and used by the wrapper.

 Applied to master, thanks.

 I've also added a warning in the help text that things may go wrong in
unexpected ways, to have at least *something* for the user.

 The rest of the series of for tomorrow. Hopefully :-)
